Tap a point on the insole to see what's happening underneath your foot.

Outline of a foot showing the arches and the heel

Transverse arch

Provides critical structural rigidity, weight distribution, and mechanical stiffness during all movements.

Lateral arch

Provides stability, balance, and a solid weight bearing base along the outer edge of the foot. Most critical for acceleration and propulsion.

Medial arch

Acts as a flexible, natural spring that absorbs shock and distributes weight during movements

Heel

Natural shock absorber during all movements.

Arch profiles

Three arch profiles. One fit for every athlete.

No two feet are shaped alike. The Dura-Step Plush Arch Zone comes in three profiles, so every athlete can match the support to the shape of her foot.

High arch

Narrow footprint

High arches have an increased amount of weight placed on the ball and heel of the foot when walking or standing. This can result in pain and difficulty with posture and balance.

Players with high arches also have a greater tendency to suffer from ankle sprains as feet supinate and roll inward. Having a high arch can additionally lead to lateral (outside) knee pain as the inward rolling of the feet cause the knees to turn outward. Designed to fill the space under the arch, the high arch profile helps absorb shock and spread weight evenly across the foot.

Footprint test: a thin band, or a gap, between the heel and the ball of the foot.

Normal arch

Balanced footprint

A moderate arch supports the foot naturally. The normal-arch profile supports that shape to help absorb shock and keep weight evenly distributed with every step.

Footprint test: a clear band about half the width of the foot joins the heel and the ball.

Footprint of a flat foot

Flat foot

Full footprint

A low arch lets most of the sole touch the ground. The flat-foot profile adds gentle, supportive contouring to help distribute weight and absorb shock.

Footprint test: most of the sole shows in the print.

Not sure which profile you have? Wet the bottom of your foot, step onto a dry, flat surface, and compare your footprint to the three above.
